I have tried both downloads link on the spellborn.acclaim.com/downloads.html however the download speed is horrible. I get about 69KBps/sec which is really bad 10 hour download. I normaly download stuff at about 750KBps/sec. Is there a way to download faster or something.

All MMO's have grinds. If you don't like to Grind then MMO's are not for you.

It might just be that so many people are downloading for the open beta.  I dl'd my copy when it was in closed beta.  I wasn't a tester but figured I would download it before it was released and was getting around 700k or so.

I did the same, I downloaded it 4 days ago and installed and patched it..

but a new acclaim version was suppose to fix the bad id/pw issue.

I am a sad sad panda..  This really was on of the few games releasing this year I wanted to try.

I am sitting on 290-320.  Downloading from West coast Aust thats a good speed.  Higher than average in fact.

 EDIT: checked again, its pushing over 400 now.  You must have tried when everyone was slamming the server.

If its ultra slow and you have a Fileplanet Sub I would suggest getting it from them.

I got the d'l'er  in no time at all.  The problem here seems to be the game itself.  Was going fine then stalled at 22%.  Been sitting at 22% for about an hour now.

I got the entire 3 Gb in less than 4 hours this morning. The speed was over 200kb/s with dips down to 70-ish on occasion. That's using the Acclaim downloader.

I just finished downloading a few minutes ago, and my download speed was pretty much the same as you described.

Looking forward to playing the game... I have a EU account too, but never got into it as the International servers were usually dead when I would log in... time zone makes a huge difference.

Are there any guilds out there looking for new members?
